Nice to see you boys all working hard and engineering that waitlist for the rest of us

Ah. Just noticed this thread. I'll just copy what I'd written on the other one.

John Cordys vid says £700 in UK and €850 in the EU. Definitely having one at that price.

Wonder when we'll be able to order them in the UK.

VP4 Virtual Pedalboard - Compact Multi-FX

When you consider an H90 is $899 and a Big Sky MX is $680, the VP4 is priced ridiculously awesome.

I initially was thinking the VP4 was priced high, but comparing to the H90 or the Big Sky MX, this is actually priced extremely competitively.

I'm far from a hater of Fractal stuff but I'm not super impressed by this product, it has plenty of competition that is better featured like the HX Effects or the stomp XL both having more switches and the effects can control the loop of an amp...

I'm interested to see how the gates work. When I use my FM9 with my amps, I can put a gate in the input and then I run a gate in the amp's loop as well. In 4CM, I'm wondering if there is an independent gate on each input so I can do this without spending an effect block on a gate, or if that's not possible.

This is a great question, as I myself love to use a double gate.

cue the douchebags who own five Strymon pedals “why is it so expensive?”

 

[texhex]

I have a GREAT idea for this! What do you guys think?

Level 2... Unlock 1 more block -> $129
Level 3... Unlock 4 more blocks -> $169 (requires Level 2)

Hmmm.. on second thought. NO.

Turns out I've had one of these things on my desk the whole time



Here's a short clip I made for those wondering how easy it is to get going from scratch.

What?

 

[texhex]

Additional 3 year warranty for $69 seems pretty reasonable. I like it.

Leon!

@2112 Shows off the VP4:

LT gets it. 15:00-18:00 ish. This thing will be a monster ambient playground pedal.

I just watched Leon's video with the Friedman IR-J as well. It (along with the JEL-100) are among the only Friedman's I've ever really been interested in. An IR-J paired with a VP4 and linked by MIDI would be a killer all-in-one-pedalboard rig. Tube pre, Fractal effects, IR out to FOH/monitors.
